TEM Holders
n order to realize « the necessity of a holder for Tomography capable of 3 axis control” proposed by Dr Hata of Kyushu University Graduate School of Engineering, it was necessary to realize a completely new specimen drive movement.
This is a specimen drive movement called “Virtual Pivot” later.
In order to accurately embody the idea our drew, we needed a unique technology organization consistent from “concept to manufacturing”
In August 2006, the organization was named “Mel-Build” and it was started. The three axis Tomography holder repeated trial production, finally the fist machine is completed in March 2007.
High Angle Triple Axis = HATA – Holder.
Since the announcement of HATA – holder, “Mel-Build” has received technological appraisal from everyone and received the request of new development holder for various research applications.
Most Melbuild holders are fully compatible with MET manufacturers JEOL and THERMO.
